The option to insure your Forward Operating Base against enemy invasions was introduced to Metal Gear Solid 5 earlier today. But as with home and motor insurance, it’s probably best to shop around before taking out a new policy, right?
Sadly, however, UK insurer Aviva won’t cover FOBs under its existing home insurance policy – but not for reasons you may have been expecting…
@VGJames Sadly not James D-Dog is far too much of a liability for us to be able to cover you I’m afraid 😉 ~ Dave

Cardboard boxes may be covered, though, but only if you take out accidental damage.
@Mick_Boss @VideoGamerCom @VGJames You’d need to include accidental damage in and away from home for that Michael ~ Dave

So there you go. If you’re looking to insure your FOB, you may have to go directly through Konami after all…
